Vladimirsky graduated from Gerasimov Institute of Cinematography but decided to work as a book illustrator.[2] He found it easiest to create evil characters, which are easily derived from the everyday life.[4]
Books illustrated by Vladimirsky sold over 20 million copies.[3] His illustrations to Tolstoy and Volkov were so popular in the Soviet Union that they were commonly reproduced on common goods including bottles of soft drinks and postcards.[2]
